Dehumidifiers and humidifiers in Richmond, British Columbia, help your loved ones feel more comfortable with the thermostat at an energy-efficient setting.
A whole-home humidifier or whole-home dehumidifier works with your HVAC device, so you don’t have to lug a portable unit from room to room. Or stress about spilling water.
A humidifier can help decrease dry air in your residence during winter months. As well as the respiratory concerns and chapped skin it can cause.
Air that’s properly humidified will feel warmer. This means that you can set your thermostat lower—and probably save more on heating bills.
When there’s high humidity during the summer, a whole-home dehumidifier removes moisture from your home’s air. This makes your house feel cooler with a higher thermostat setting, possibly saving you more on your cooling costs.
